We're now taking applications for two positions on the Planning Board. These are important positions as the Planning Board serves as the Council’s principal adviser on land use planning and community planning. This means the board is responsible for preparation and amendment of the County General Plan; preparation and amendment of Master Plans and functional plans; implementation of the subdivision process and a whole lot more.

The two vacancies are created because the terms of Norman Dreyfuss (Republican) and Joseph Alfandre (Democrat) expire on June 14. No more than three members of the Planning Board may be from the same political party.On average, a Planning Board member can expect to spend at least two full days a week in scheduled and informational meetings. We need some good talent for this position, so remember to get your application in by April 27.
